Childhood Days from 11 by Joanna Gemma Auguri

The track was written in absolute solitude in an old farmhouse by the Baltic Sea. Auguri took inspiration from Christopher Knight’s book The Stranger In The Woods, a true story of a man who escaped modern life and chose complete isolation in the forest for twenty-seven years. Taking these thoughts with her through her work, Auguri explores the concept of human bondage, autonomy, and connection with thoughtful philosophy: How much of the cracks inside do you reveal when you step closer to another? What will gurgle to the surface when you get to know each other on a deeper level?
These questions are accompanied on accordion as a drone instrument, layering sound in an avant-garde balancing act between dark folk, poetry, film, and sad pop.

Joanna Gemma Auguri is a musician, songwriter and actress. In the various stages of her musical solo and band projects, she incorporates influences from folk, ambient and avant-garde music.
